Description of problem: In GNOME, when I set a proxy and try to surf to my local address (127.0.0.1 or localhost) it doesn't work ( I have a local application which is listening on that address). It work on epiphany instead. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 3.0-0.60.beta5.fc9 How reproducible: Simply set new proxy using GNOME network proxy preferences and try to connect to a local address (you should have a local application listening). Steps to Reproduce: 1. set proxy using gnome 2. connect to a local address:port Actual results: Firefox says "connection refused", using epiphany it works. Expected results: Firefox connect to local address.
Do you have in Edit/Preferences/Advanced/Network/Settings set "Use System Settings"? What is the output of this command in xterm? env |grep proxy
Yes. Remote websites works...maybe is a problem about proxy ignore host list. [lfoppiano@sboing ~]$ env | grep proxy [lfoppiano@sboing ~]$
Set your proxy correctly in gnome-network-preferences.
Proxy is correctly setted in gnome-network-preferences.

I guess my proxy preferences are corrected, in the host ignore list I have also another field, and I can't reach to that hosts...(that hosts are locals) With epiphany all works without problems.
ok, today when I launch env | grep proxy i got the correct strings: [lfoppiano@sboing ~]$ env | grep proxy http_proxy=http://******:*********@proxy:80/ no_proxy=localhost,127.0.0.0/8,*.domain [lfoppiano@sboing ~]$ I didn't do anything respect last my message... Anyone have the same problem?
I update my firefox to firefox-3.0-1.fc9.x86_64 and this bug seems to be fixed. Luca
